Yup BF1942 is fun.

Not realistic at all (just like WWIIO) but still fun(not like WWIIO).

FB is a blast. But I tell ya the gunnery is tuff to get used too! I think I am a pretty decent shot in AH, but forget about that in FB:) But the immersion of FB is deep.

This is the BF:1942 "F4U Corsair":

Dunno what game your playing because BF1942's corsair looks nothing like that

I think BF1942 is WAY over hyped. If you can find a "used" copy for $15 then go for it, but IMO it is not worth the $40+ price tag. And getting the "Best Game of the Year" awards is showing how some publishers give reviewers and edititors "perks" for good reviews....

Hey, don't look at me ... it's what the official website says. Kinda makes one worried.

Oh ... and I also learned the H.M.S. Prince of Wales was U.S.N.

It's a typo

Arlo · « **Reply #11 on:** April 18, 2003, 06:41:35 PM »

Oh! A typo!

Could you imagine such a typo being unnoticed and left uncorrected on the AH site?

Impossible! hitech is physically incapable of typos!

Arlo · « **Reply #13 on:** April 18, 2003, 06:58:32 PM »

If I say "mashed potatos" are you gonna envision "yams"?

I said "being unnoticed and left uncorrected".
